Risk factors for adverse events or use of high-potency corticosteroids in non-infectious uveitis: a Japan claims database study (J-CAT2).

The study included data from a nationwide insurance claims database in Japan.

A nested case-control design was used to evaluate patient factors associated with complications/adverse events or high corticosteroid exposure.

Macular edema was the most likely factor associated with ≥2 sub-Tenon injections.

The J-CAT2 study used a novel, quantitative and visual framework to understand associations between dose, frequency, and duration of corticosteroid treatment and complications/adverse events risk in non-infectious uveitis.
